CHINA | Tuesday, 1 Apr 2014 | Views [281]

We flew to Tibet's capital, Lhasa from Kathmandu on Air China. I was unlucky not to get a window seat on the left hand side to get a view of Everest. I was on the right and saw the third highest mountain instead. Lhasa is colourful and historic. The ... Read more >

Only an idiot travels to South America for 1 week and I am that idiot. Such a long way to go and such an expensive flight…did I get to see the best of Colombia? I think so. I didn’t get as much time to sight see around Bogota as I arrived ... Read more >

BOLIVIA | Tuesday, 24 Dec 2013 | Views [1507]

I have to say it but this trip was the best trip I have been on in years.  Bolivia is a great country. Intrepid had a great itinerary and fabulous guide and most of all I was in great company. There were only 3 others in the group, two from the ... Read more >

TURKMENISTAN | Saturday, 26 Oct 2013 | Views [1720]

Turkmenistan is another fascinating country that I was looking forward to explore. I got a dose of the Turkmen culture while I was at Istanbul Airport waiting to board my flight to Ashgabat. I saw really tall, big build women; this was mainly from the ... Read more >

Arrived in Inverness Sunday morning and had to hang around the airport for an hour for the Sunday bus which only runs every other hour. Taxi fare was £20 and too expensive for my budget. Eventually got to the main bus station and decided to buy ... Read more >

I finally arrived in Kamchatka after a 7 hour flight from Ulaan Bataar, a 9 hour wait in Moscow and an 8 hour flight to Petropavlovsk. After all that I met my group or at least I thought I did and had another 2 hours of waiting before I got to my hotel.... Read more >

IRAQ | Wednesday, 22 May 2013 | Views [447]

Finally it’s safe to travel to Kurdistan and I am one of 200 people to visit this wonderful place in Iraq. Don’t get me wrong as outside Kurdistan is still very dangerous especially Baghdad and Kirkuk. In fact while I was out there 50 people ... Read more >

MARTINIQUE | Wednesday, 10 Apr 2013 | Views [401]

We took the catamaran to Martinique which was late and it took nearly 3 hours to cross the ocean. It was a puke fest. I stayed in the air conditioned area below which had a socket for my laptop and I sat in front of a family of 4. This should have been ... Read more >
